In this section you will find all the astronomical images acquired over time in the Innumerabili mondi Observatory.

Deep-Sky Images

Deep-sky astrophotography looks far beyond our Solar System. Most of the stars, nebulae and star clusters we photograph belong to our own galaxy, the Milky Way, typically at distances ranging from hundreds to tens of thousands of light-years. Other galaxies are the great exception: they lie outside the Milky Way and are vastly more distant, generally millions to billions of light-years away. Because deep-sky objects are extremely faint, imaging them often requires long exposures and many hours of integration.

Solar System Images

Solar System astrophotography captures our closest astronomical neighbours: the Sun, Moon, planets, comets and asteroids. Their distances are tiny on the cosmic scale: the Moon is only about 384,000 km away, the Sun about 150 million km, while the planets range from tens of millions to several billion kilometres from Earth. These objects are generally much brighter than deep-sky targets and are usually photographed using short exposures or high-speed video rather than hours of integration.
